Rams vs Lions Prediction

You can make an argument that the Rams are the best team in the league. The Rams are top-five in scoring offense and scoring defense. They deserve to be big favorites. However, injuries or not, the Lions are being disrespected with this line. The Lions are still an explosive offense capable of pulling off a win any given week. This is also a revenge spot for Goff.

This will be the first time since January 2024 where the Lions are an underdog of 5 or more points. Since September 2021, the Lions are 12-3 ATS as an underdog of 5 or more points. We’ve seen the Rams outright lose twice this season when favorites of 5 or more points. This has a chance to be a back and forth high scoring contest. I want the free touchdown in my pocket. Give me the Lions.
